| The Retro Has Got to Go
|
|
By Kelly Ann Butterbaugh

 Set the scene: your new home is beautiful. The kitchen's been remodeled, the living space is newly carpeted, and the bathroom has pristine green and pink tile. Green and pink tile? Yes, welcome to the bygone era of seashell colored bathrooms. If you're not seeing green and pink, you might be seeing powder blue. Yellow, maybe?

| Losing a Bedroom When Renovating
|
|
Help I need an opinion. My wife and I are thinking of redoing a very small main floor bathroom. It is 5'x6'. There is a small room abutting it that we really don't use. I am thinking of stealing a piece of that room for the bath and using the rest to build a walk in closet and to make the family room also a bit larger.

How do I remove old ceramic wall tiles in my kitchen? They are chipped and some are cracked. Also, how do I treat the wall when they have come off? So I have to plaster the wall?

| Wall In Garage For More Square Footage
|
|
Some friends of ours recently bought a new home. Since neither of them drive, they don't own a car. They had their garage boxed in. They had a contractor put up a wall over the garage door and finish off the rest of the room and ceiling so that it doesn't look like a typical garage.

I have just bought a run down house which I plan to renovate. I am doing this on a very tight budget, and wanted to know if anyone has a product recommendations or tips from doing their renovation.

| Replacing Ceiling Tile
|
|
What is the best solution to replace an old home with the 12" celing tile used in the 70's? It is an old home and we want to restore it to the original victorian design. It has the original plaster and then wood strips that the tile are stapled to.

We would like to remove the Paneling on our living room. But whoever put it up Nailed and Glued it. We are not looking to paint it but we were wondering if anyone has removed the paneling and also removed the glue without ruining the drywall.

We are removing the carpet on our stairway, but we do not want to replace it with more carpet. We wish to do something different.
